gnutls_x509_privkey_init(3)

✨ gnutls_x509_privkey_init ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the gnutls manual 💖 this one's a tiny little icon from the gnutls crew, and it's about making a private key type exist. yes, just making it exist. baby steps, we love a soft launch 🎀

---

🌸 NAME 🌸

gnutls_x509_privkey_init — literally just an API function, no biggie 💅

---

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

#include <gnutls/x509.h>

int gnutls_x509_privkey_init(gnutls_x509_privkey_t * key);

---

💜 ARGUMENTS 💜

• gnutls_x509_privkey_t * key — a pointer to the type you want to initialize. that's it, that's the whole job, she's a pointer to the thing 🫶

---

✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

so the way this works is: this function initializes a private key type. that's the whole vibe. you hand it a pointer, it sets up the type for you, and now you have somewhere to put an actual private key later. main character setup arc 🌈

---

🔥 RETURNS 🔥

on success you get GNUTLS_E_SUCCESS (0) back — slay, zero, we love to see it 👑

otherwise you get a negative error value, which is the code's way of saying "not me failing the vibe check" 😭
